Herbie Hancock, musical innovator, to play in Newport News

Keyboard ace Herbie Hancock stood at the center of at least two musical revolutions. He rocked the jazz world in the 1960s as part of Miles Davis' trailblazing band. In the 1980s, he broke new ground with the tune "Rockit," which brought turntable scratching into the mainstream. He performs 7 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 9, at the Ferguson Center for the Arts in Newport News. Tickets are $32-$59. To purchase, or more information, visit fergusoncenter.cnu.edu or call 877-840-0457.
